Dan Pratt back in town to 'return some love' by working on volunteer projects
Dan Pratt, the former student ministry coordinator for First Baptist Elizabethton, will be in town this week, returning "some of the love I felt when I lived there."
And he isn't coming alone.
Pratt will be leading a mission team from his current church, lifechurch, from Canton, Mich. The team of 36 youth and 10 adults will be doing volunteer repair work on The Shepherd's Inn, The East Tennessee Christian Home and three individual residences.
"We'll be doing whatever we can and giving back to the community that gave me so much for so many years," Pratt said.
He was also the speaker at First Baptist's Sunday morning service on June 30.|
The mission team's logo — a dandelion with seeds flying out — illustrates the group's theme for the week — "Scatter."
"We're basing our theme on a reference to Matthew Chapter 13 and several other scriptures where Matthew talks about the kingdom of God being like field," Pratt said. "This mission trip is all about how it's our job is to show up and to sow these seeds everywhere we go."
Sometimes explaining to parents and students why mission trips can be so important can be a little difficult, he added. "A lot of people ask me, why do you go on mission trips, there's plenty we can do here?"
"I try to explain that it's really important to teach students what it means to serve and to love people — total strangers — and to give yourself away. For most teenagers, it is the first week of their life that it's not about them. It makes a pretty big impact."
Pratt, a native of Michigan, seems to have come full circle in his ministry. "I guess First Baptist Church Elizabethton and Pastor Brent Seals saw some potential in me," he said. "They allowed me the privilege of serving as a full-time student ministry coordinator for eight years beginning in 1998."
While serving at FBC, Pratt was a popular member of the community and well known to hundreds of area students. He served as a "coach" for other youth ministers, led devotions as the "rev" for the Elizabethton High School basketball team and was named "Staff Person of the Year" by the Tennessee Baptist Convention in 2004.
In 2005, God called Pratt to Eastern Heights Baptist Church in Statesboro, Ga., where he served as Pastor to Students at Eastern Heights for five years.
While in Statesboro, Pratt was involved with the Baptist Collegiate Ministries on the Georgia Southern University campus, continued his role as a coach for young youth pastors and was the Statesboro High School Blue Devil mascot for three years.
Then, Pratt says, God moved him back to Michigan.
For the past three years, he has served as Pastor to Students at lifechurch, a rapidly growing Evangelical Covenant church plant in the suburbs of Detroit. The 10-year-old church has grown from 20 people to an average weekly attendance of 1,200.
Pratt and his wife of 24 years, Pam, moved to Canton in 2010 where they now reside.
His ministry still includes serving as coach to other youth pastors and has evolved to include mentoring youth ministry interns and the 50 youth ministry volunteers who serve beside him weekly ministering to 200 teenagers.
When he has time off, Pratt spends his spare moments communicating with his three children, who all live far away. His daughter, Brittany, teaches high school in Nashville; his oldest son, Jordan, teaches at the University of Texas in Arlington; and Elias, the youngest, serves as a combat medic in Afghanistan via El Paso, Texas.
Pratt's love of young people drives his passion for ministry. He has participated in the lives of hundreds of teens, watching their ballgames and dance recitals, baptizing them, performing their marriage ceremonies, laughing with them, crying with them and changing their lives forever.
For these students and for First Baptist Elizabethton, Pratt says he is grateful for the opportunity to return to the community to give back.
"You know, I've had this Bible a long time and I write in the front of it every time I do a baptism or a wedding," he said. "It's a long list.
"I keep thinking that this list wouldn't exist if it weren't for First Baptist in Elizabethton. That church believed in me when nobody else did. It's crazy to think how it all started. It's just sort of surreal."
Pratt invites young people throughout the community to come and meet the mission team and worship with them on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday at 8 p.m. in the youth room at First Baptist. Brad Barrick from Elizabethton Alliance Church will be speaking each evening. "We would especially invite everyone to come on Friday night, our last worship service," Pratt said.
"It will be interesting to see how our students from a suburb of Detroit adjust to East Tennessee," he added. "I think they will love it. After all, what's not to love?"
Most of the students in the group have never been on a mission trip, Pratt said, and many have never been out of Michigan.
"Those are my favorite kind of kids to take on a trip like this," Pratt said. "It will be a great experience for them, a great shot in the arm for First Baptist and for the community. I'm just so excited to be bringing them to Elizabethton."
First Baptist Church is located at 212 East F Street in Elizabethton. For more information, call 543-1931 or visit fbcelizabethton.com.

Very pleased! I wasn't sure when I looked at these online, but I have a daughter who suffers from chillblains in the winter, so I thought "Lets have a look see". They arrived quickly and are totally scrummy. They feel soooo nice that you want to cuddle up with them. The beads in the sole do feel a little different but I think she will soon get used to them. All in all a great buy and a great pressie, I am even considering getting myself a pair - as a Christmas pressie - you understand.
Getting cold feet?
great product, does exactly what it says on the tin. others have noted that there not great to walk in but they're not really slippers in that sense, just a cleaver way to keep you feet warm on a cold day. great for students who refuse to put the heating on. My girlfriend loved them
Slippers that make it hard to walk!
I bought these Hot Boots for my wife. She likes them and there is no doubt they are warm once microwaved. However the beads that contain the heat are on the top and the bottom. The sole is made of beads. This means you are walking on what is effectively beanbags. It is not easy or particularly comfortable. So they are good for lounging in but not for wearing if you are pottering around. That's a bit of a design flaw in my book!

-Franchot to Visit 24 Businesses that are Examples of Efficiency for Govt. -
Annapolis, Md. (April 11, 2011) – In an effort to highlight businesses innovatively operating at lower costs and pass along their lessons of efficiencies to government, Comptroller Peter Franchot will kick off his Better with Less tour this week. The 24-stop trek to businesses and non profit organizations across Maryland is part of his new award program by the same name. The tour begins Wednesday with stops in Worcester and Wicomico counties.
In March, Comptroller Franchot announced the award program and encouraged businesses, civic organizations and citizens to nominate an organization which has achieved economic success while using fewer resources, identified new market opportunities in the current economic climate, used innovation to operate more efficiently or strengthened local communities by providing vital services or opportunities for success. Nearly 100 nominations were received. One winner will be announced in each county and Baltimore City in the coming months.
"During my many visits to small businesses across the state, I've seen the genius of the private sector at work. We in government could learn a thing or two about how to operate more efficiently. I look forward to highlighting Maryland's best and brightest organizations," said Comptroller Franchot.

The Common Use Continuum
SITA's airport IT survey highlights trends associated with passenger processing
Now in its sixth year, the airport IT trends survey is "building momentum and credibility," says SITA vice president for airport service Catherine Mayer. Representing some 176 airports worldwide, including 56 from the top 100 in terms of revenue and passengers, this year's survey received a record response rate. Survey results show that passenger processing and services is the highest airport priority investment for the third successive year, and 2008 IT budgets were largely unaffected by the downturn.
"The survey is global, and for the first time we really had a good balance of respondents from all over the world," relates Mayer.
"In the past most of the response has come predominantly from North America followed by Europe. This year it was very well balanced between Europe, North America, and even the Asia-Pacific region."
According to Mayer, when the data is put together, it's significant because in terms of all the airports that responded, they represent more than 69 percent of all the revenue generated by the world's top 100 airports, and 60 percent of all passenger traffic.
In terms of addressing the size of airports represented, SITA weights the answers, says Mayer. "What we do is take into consideration the revenue, the size of the airport, and the traffic volume, and try to balance that out between all the different airports that respond."
Serving the passenger
With regard to airports investing in customer service, "This is not the first year we have seen that at the top, it's actually the second year," says Mayer. "That is a reconfirmation that airports are very focused on the end-user, and they are no longer playing the traditional landlord or facilities provider role.
"They're taking an active interest in what happens and how the passengers are traveling through the premises; how the flow of the passenger's entire journey is going to go."
The most amazing thing that came out of this survey, remarks Mayer, is the commitment of airports to continue to invest in information technology (IT) as a solution to get them through the global economic downturn.
In the face of carrier capacity cutbacks and a decline in passenger demand, the survey shows that airports are not cutting their IT budgets, but are maintaining and or increasing them for next year.
"We have done a good job as an industry, working in a collaborative manner between Airports Council International (ACI), the International Air Transport Association (IATA), and the vendors to get passengers used to self-service kiosks for check in," says Mayer.
"But industry is telling us to take it a step further now … to look at using self-service kiosks for other types of services such as disruption management, transit, baggage — and not just check in. Airports are realizing they can use self-service for boarding, access to lounges, tracking passengers, etc.
"Industry has encouraged passengers to utilize self-service; passengers now accept it and in many cases, as with check-in, they expect it."
Investing in Infrastructure
The survey also shows that there is still a strong focus by airports to invest in IT infrastructure consolidation, or common-use virtualization, and taking advantage of new technologies that will help drive down costs and offer better services, relates Mayer. "An airport's IT infrastructure (data and voice communication capabilities) is its lifeline," she says.
Regarding master airport IT plans, Mayer comments, "We have always asked the question in the survey: Do you have a master IT plan and what is the average time span covered by it?
"The reason we took that question out of the survey is because the majority of respondents were saying, 'Yes, we do have an IT master plan in place, and it's usually three to five years.'"
Consultant companies that put together airport master plans will now have a section devoted to IT planning. "The airport IT master plan is now a component of an airport's capital investment master plan; which wasn't the case just five years ago," she says.

Reports: Verlander, Cain selected as starters in All-Star Game
After being deemed ineligible to start last year's All-Star Game, Justin Verlander will finally get his chance.
According to FoxSports.com's Jon Paul Morosi, American League manager Ron Washington has selected Verlander to start for the AL in Tuesday's game. And according to the New York Daily News' John Harper, Matt Cain will get the nod for the National League.
The 2011 Cy Young winner has an ERA of 2.58 this season, tossing five complete games and averages 8.7 strikeouts per nine innings. The official announcement will come later Monday.
Chris Sale of the Chicago White Sox his case during the first half of the year to be the AL's starter as he currently sits second in the league in ERA (2.19) and boasts a 10-2 record.
But Verlander, also last year's AL MVP, is on pace to lead the league for a second consecutive year in strikeouts and innings pitched.
As for the National League, Tony LaRussa has reportedly tabbed San Francisco Giants' Matt Cain as the starter.
Source says Dickey is not starting All-Star game. Will be Cain vs. Verlander.—
John Harper (@NYDNHarper) July 09, 2012
According to Harper, Cain will get the nod over the likes of knuckleballer R.A. Dickey and flamethrower Stephen Strasburg. What may have won LaRussa over was Cain's perfect game in June, which was only the 22nd in MLB history.

Useful Guidelines on Shooting with Ultra Wide Lenses Wide-angle lens are further divided into sub-classifications: Wide, ultra-wide and ultra-ultra-wide. Based on current standards, wide lenses for 35mm cameras are those with focal lengths ranging from 24 to 35mm. Lenses are considered ultra-wide if they have focal lengths from 17 to 21 mm, and ultra-ultra-wide if from 12 to 16mm. The New Russar+ is a 20mm lens; hence it falls under the ultra-wide classification. If you have an ultra-wide lens or if you intend to get the Russar+, you might as well make the most out of your precious investment. Read on for a few guidelines on shooting with ultra-wide lenses.

Neuroscience of Rhythm
Our current work in the neuroscience of rhythm perception and rhythmic synchronization mechanisms has produced results in 3 major areas:
1) Empirical data and computational modeling of how the brain synchronizes rhythmic movement to external rhythm;
2) Evidence for subliminal perception of auditory timing information below the level of conscious perception, which the brain nevertheless uses to guide the timing of rhythmic movement;
3) Brain mapping using PET-scanning technology to describe neural networks involved in rhythmic synchronization.
In conjunction with groups in Germany (Duesseldorf University: Department of Neurology and Neurological Therapy Center; Federal Research Center Juelich)and Italy (IRCCS Santa Lucia and IESS-CNR, Rome) we were recently able to map the cortical and subcortical areas in the brain, involving parieto-thalamic, cerebellar, and frontal networks, that are active and contribute to the process of auditory rhythm perception and rhythmic motor synchronization. These studies into brain function also revealed the different neuroanatomical areas active during different levels of perceptual awareness and consciousness in the brain when processing external sensory information. The different levels of human consciousness appear to be linked to differential activation patterns in the prefrontal cortex. We showed how even subliminal auditory timing information is processed in the auditory cortex and translated into precise changes in the timing of movement without cognitive awareness and learning. We recently developed a data driven model, which models mathematically the strong and fast physiological attractor or 'magnet' function of auditory rhythm to influence the timing of movement. All these studies, employing neurophysiological data recording such as Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic and Electric Encephalography, contributed new knowledge to the study of sensorimotor integration in the brain, the role of perception in action, and how the brain perceives and produces rhythm.
Neurologic Rehabilitation
The area of neurologic rehabilitation our research findings have focused on 3 areas:
1) The application of rhythmic entrainment to facilitate and improve the long-term gait ability of patients with stroke, Parkinson's disease, cerebral palsy, and traumatic brain injury;
2) First evidence that rhythmic stimulation might also work in the rehabilitation of arm functions;
3) Data and computational models of the mechanisms showing why auditory rhythm stabilizes and optimizes movement kinematics in therapeutic training.
Our group (associate faculty, postdoctoral fellows,
graduate students from neurology, physical and music therapy, biomechanics,
mathematics, electrical engineering, physics) discovered in first experiments
in 1990 that the strong synchronization effect of rhythm on gait movements has
a profound facilitating effect on the gait ability of stroke patients. Research
experiments synchronizing gait patterns to auditory rhythm led to dramatic gait
improvements in speed, symmetry, and muscle activation patterns in patients
whose gait ability was severely compromised. Further rehabilitation studies
have shown by now that rhythmic training can also produce sustainable
improvements in gait recovery over longer periods of time. Since then, other
patient groups have been successfully researched as well, most notably patients
with Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, and cerebral palsy. Most
recent studies show that the use of the upper extremities can also be improved
with rhythmically patterned movement training. This research has been
introduced at numerous international medical and rehabilitation conferences,
and is being practiced at several large rehabilitation centers in the
Neurologic Music Therapy
Our research has facilitated the development of Neurologic Music Therapy as a new, research based treatment system for patients with neurologic disorders. Neurologic Music Therapy is based on utilizing the physiological mechanisms inherent in music perception and production. Treatment techniques are standardized for functional therapeutic outcomes.

Blaze's bat caught fire in the 4-2 win and helped push his team to the title at the Westminster Academy Spring Break Invitational last week in Fort Lauderdale.
Vazquez finished the tournament batting .555 (5-for-9) and three runs scored to ignite his team and lift his season average to .464.
"He's a player. When he's hitting, we're going," Eagles coach Rick Turner said. "In the tournament he swung about as good as I've seen him."
"As a team, we hit the ball really well," Vazquez said. "We really came together as a team during that tournament. No other team could touch us."
"I'd like to have a few more players like him," Turner added.
And no team could touch the scorchers coming off his bat either.
After a hitting a home run that went "360 feet out and 360 foot in the air," according to Turner, Vazquez had an even more emphatic result in his next at-bat.
"I was really solid on the ball and it seemed like I was able to swing all the way through. (The pitcher) threw me a fastball inside that I crushed down the left-field line," Vazquez said of the line drive that only stopped because of the outfield wall. "The home run came on a curveball so it had more loft on it."
"If he'd have the home run as hard as he hit that double, they'd still be talking about it. It was just a shot," Turner said.
Blaze, his given name, hasn't made any decisions on where he would like to play after his senior season, but said he likely will take the junior-college route to a four-year school.

Contractor will create statewide health information exchange
Harris Corp. has won a four-year, $19 million contract from the state of Florida to implement a statewide health information exchange infrastructure that is designed to improve the delivery and coordination of health care.
The contract, awarded by Florida's Agency for Health Care Administration, calls for Harris to connect health entities across the state, including physicians, hospitals, regional health information exchanges, and state government agencies, according to a Harris statement released today.
Harris also will provide timely, secure and authorized exchanges of patient health information.
The company's open, standards-based solution will allow the state to efficiently adapt to health policies and technologies, minimize the total cost of ownership, and build on existing regional investments for a connected Florida health information exchange.
The health information exchange in Florida, which has an aging and transient population, can become a model for the country by improving patient safety and quality while lowering costs, Jim Traficant, vice president and general manager of Harris Healthcare Solutions, said in the announcement.
Harris Corp., of Melbourne, Fla., ranks No. 13 on Washington Technology's 2010 Top 100 list of the largest federal government contractors.

Comments On Nov 21, 2013:Michelin Pilot Road 3 - Star Performer, Sticky when cold. Handle like a dream, for my money the best tire your money can buy. I ride very hard & lay my Super Motard over as far as it will go so it's nice to be able to trust my tires to grip. Have used them before & won't change until the Pilot Road 4 comes out.

Comments On Jun 04, 2013:I like the siped tread design. I have about 500 miles on this tire and the ride is great and gives good confidence during cornering and high speed. I'm not seeing any signs of wear yet.

Comments On Jan 31, 2013:This is the second set of Michelin Pilot Road 3's on my FJR1300, and I am about to order a third set. I love the way these tires feel, and as others have said, feel very good in the rain. Love these tires. Getting about 9 to 10k miles off of them.

Comments On Sep 12, 2012:This is my second set for my BMW F800ST. Nice, progressive turn-in, predictable grip and confidence inspiring in wet weather.
Excellent distance from the rear and very even wear. I push the front pretty hard and as usual, am wearing the edges faster than the centre, but still excellent mileage.

Comments On Mar 13, 2012:Everyone wants to know mileage. Hard riding mostly solo on secondary twisty roads nets me about 7000 miles to the wear bars. Your mileage will vary depending loads, p.s.i., and how coarse the road surface. I like the tire and don't think you can go wrong in a sport touring application.

What are the symptoms of microcystic adnexal carcinoma?
Microcystic adnexal carcinoma appears as a smooth bump or patch that is slightly raised from the surrounding skin. It may be flesh-colored or yellowish, and it increases in size over time. A microcystic adnexal carcinoma may grow into nerves nearby, which can cause discomfort, numbness, tingling (paresthesia), burning, or itching.[1]

For Immediate ReleaseContact: J. Craig Shearman (202) email@example.com Retail Industry Adopts Principles for Tax ReformNEW YORK, January 14, 2013 – The National Retail Federation Board of Directors has adopted a resolution directing NRF to "strongly encourage" Congress to enact comprehensive tax reform in 2013 and setting out a list of principles aimed at achieving tax policy that would boost the economy and encourage job growth, NRF said today."Now that the fiscal cliff has been avoided, the time has come to address comprehensive tax reform," NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay said. "We want to put the economy on a trajectory to grow again, and tax reform and tax certainty are an essential part of the formula for growth. We can't achieve that goal by having political battles year after year over temporary, last-minute measures. This is the year for fundamental, comprehensive tax reform that will settle our nation's tax policy questions on a long-term basis and provide businesses the certainty they need to grow and create the jobs that are so badly needed.""Whether they take money out of consumers' pockets or keep businesses from being competitive in the global market, high taxes are bad for the economy," Shay said. "We must work to ensure that our tax system is fair and that rates are reasonable."Shay said political battles such as the recent uncertainty regarding resolution of the fiscal cliff hurt consumer confidence, noting that NRF polling found two-thirds of consumers said their 2012 holiday season shopping was impacted by worries over the economy."Retailers and the millions of workers whose jobs depend on retail sales paid the price as the fiscal cliff fiasco undermined consumer confidence," Shay said.Meeting at Retail's BIG Show – NRF's annual convention in New York City – the Board voted on Sunday to approve the following tax reform principles:
· Tax reform should eliminate tax credits and incentives that favor some industries over others and should replace these "tax expenditures" with substantially lower tax rates, freeing businesses to make the most economically prudent investment decisions rather than having the tax code drive decision-making.
· Tax reform should be neutral among different types of businesses, so that businesses are not favored based on their form of legal entity (e.g. C corporation vs. pass-through), how they own their property (e.g. leased stores vs. owned stores), or distribution channel (e.g. brick and mortar sale vs. remote sale).
· Tax reform should not include a consumption tax.
· Tax reform should eliminate temporary tax provisions and provide certainty.
· Tax reform should provide adequate transition rules, so that businesses do not face large tax burdens based on investment decisions made in years prior to the enactment of tax reform."Certainty in tax policy fosters the innovation and growth that a vibrant economy provides," the resolution said.Adoption of the principles comes as President Obama is expected to call for corporate tax reform in his upcoming State of the Union address and the House Ways and Means Committee is expected to bring up comprehensive reform this spring and bring a bill to the House floor.As the world's largest retail trade association and the voice of retail worldwide, NRF represents retailers of all types and sizes, including chain restaurants and industry partners, from the United States and more than 45 countries abroad. Retailers operate more than 3.6 million U.S. establishments that support one in four U.S. jobs – 42 million working Americans. Contributing $2.5 trillion to annual GDP, retail is a daily barometer for the nation's economy. NRF's Retail Means Jobs campaign emphasizes the economic importance of retail and encourages policymakers to support a Jobs, Innovation and Consumer Value Agenda aimed at boosting economic growth and job creation. www.nrf.com ###

Easy styling tricks and nutrition tweaks that will have you looking like you've spent four weeks at the gym. For more body-slimming inspiration, check out our Virtual Weight-Loss Simulator.
1. Add Pops of Color
If you have wide hips and thighs, wear a black pencil skirt on the bottom and a bright color like fuchsia on top. (Or, reverse it if you're self-conscious about your upper body area.) By sporting darker colors on your "problem areas", you'll bring attention to the asset that you feel best about.
2. Buy a New Bra
The one thing every woman can do right now to look thinner in her clothes is to buy a new bra, says Charla Krupp, author of How to Never Look Fat Again. "Eighty-five percent of women are walking around in the wrong bra, and it makes their breasts look lower than they should be." The goal is to create as much space as possible between your waist and chest so your torso appears longer and leaner, she advises. The trick is to have an expert measure you instead of automatically buying the same size you always do. Head to the lingerie department at a fine department store or a specialty shop like the Intimacy boutique to get hooked up (no pun intended).
3. Choose V-Neck Tops
When it comes to dressing thinner, Krupp swears by V-neck tops. "The downward diamond shape optically elongates and narrows so you don't have a cutoff point where the actual neck stops, which gives the illusion of extra inches." There's just one caveat to living in V's: You must take care of the skin on your body, especially your neck and chest. Krupp recommends starting in the shower with Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Advanced Anti-Aging Body Wash, which helps improve elasticity, dryness, dullness, and the appearance of fine lines, then following up with an anti-aging body moisturizer such as Olay Regenerist Regenerating Body Lotion.

4. Invest in Shapewear
By now you're probably very familiar with the miracle known as Spanx. Krupp is a huge fan of the shapewear line, but acknowledges that these pieces can feel like sausage casing sometimes. The solution: Skinny Britches, a new line of ultra-sheer shapewear from Spanx that can be layered depending on how much compression you need. "The pieces are actually very feminine and pretty so it's okay if they peek out," says Krupp.
5. Clean Out Your Closet
Purge your wardrobe of what Krupp calls "High Fat" clothing and accessories. Some of the worst offenders include oversized T-shirts, sleeveless shirts (if you have arm flab), any shoe that cuts you off at the ankle, and shiny satin skirts as they accentuate every bulge.
6. Get Waisted
"Adding a belt to highlight your waist can instantly make you look 5lbs thinner," says Romy Fazeli, beauty and health expert from Kymaro. "Creating curves can often draw the attention to the waistline creating a slimmer and sexier style."
7. Show Some Skin
When dressing up, it's key to follow one rule: Don't let your outfit cover you up too much. Bare arms and a little décolleté help elongate the body, not to mention add a sexy, but appropriate, touch.
8. Look Better in Photos
"When posing in pictures, keep your head up and your shoulders back," says Jennifer Miller, Cosmopolitan's Photo Director who handles the magazine's cover shoots. "Keep your posture tall to slim yourself instantly. Turn your body three quarters to make yourself look thinner and more natural. Shift your weight to the back leg to give shape and sass to your look. To combat arm flab, put your hand on the hip facing the camera, which will immediately make your arm look trim."

9. Become a Contouring Pro
"Bring out the angles in your face," suggests celebrity makeup artist Brigitte Reiss-Andersen. How? By highlighting the "high points" of your face (cheek and brow bones) using iridescent powder. Tip: Use your regular blush and eye colors in the areas that recede, like the hollows of your cheeks and the creases of your eyes, to exaggerate the effects.
Beware of ill-fitting jeans since they can really ruin your look. One surefire sign? There's bunching, wrinkles, or sagging in the crotch area. "You shouldn't have excess material in your crotch," say Shatonia Amee, a New York-based wardrobe stylist. "Your jeans should be able to come all the way up and lie flat in that area. If not, your jeans may be too big, or your inseam may be too long." The solution? A lower-rise jean.
Another thing to look out for: If your jeans are pulling and creasing in the crotch. "This means your jeans are too tight," says Amee. "You may want to try a fabric with more stretch. Don't be afraid to go up in size, either - remember, your main goal is comfort!" Get more tips on finding the right pair of denim here.
11. Nix Muffin Top
"There are a few reasons this may be happening," Shatonia says. "One reason could be that your jeans are too tight. Again, don't be afraid to go up in size - it's only a number! You want to be comfortable and look good. Another reason could be that you need a higher rise - your jeans should lie flat on your hips and waistline. When a pair of jeans is too tight or low, they can create that unwanted spillage, or muffin top, on anyone, regardless of size.
12. Get Some Sleep
Sleepless nights mean stressful days, which can lead to emotional-eating binges. What's more, researchers from the University of Chicago Medical Center tracked 12 healthy males and found that those who got only four hours of rest at night had a 23 percent increase in appetite. So strive for at least seven hours of sleep a night. (by Good Housekeeping)
Your dinner could to blame for your lack of sleep. Check out the 10 foods that keep you up at night.
13. Practice Good Posture
Standing and sitting tall not only slim down your body, but also helps decrease wear and tear on your joints, neck, and back. Improve your posture while waiting in line during your holiday shopping with these tips:
1. Imagine a straight line along the side of your body from your ear through your shoulder, hip, and knee down to the middle of your ankle.
2. Pretend you have a string pulling just your head up to the ceiling; keep your shoulders pushed back and down.
3. Tuck in your stomach and pelvis.
4. Let your hands hang behind the side seams on your pants.
5. Distribute your weight evenly along the full length of both of your feet.
14. Chew Slowly
If you always rush through meals, watch out. A study from the University of Rhode Island showed that women who raced through a pasta lunch in nine minutes ate 646 calories. Those who took their time (about half an hour) consumed almost 70 fewer calories. And not only did they eat less - they felt fuller. (by Good Housekeeping)
15. Drink More Water
You've heard it again and again - H2O, at zero calories, is the best diet drink. But if you're still hooked on high-cal beverages, check out these numbers: Researchers who tracked 240 overweight women found that those who replaced sweetened drinks with water lost five more pounds, on average, than those who didn't. Why these sips add up: A can of Coke is 146 calories; a cup of grape juice, 154 calories. (by Good Housekeeping)

A Chaminade record may have been broken Monday night, but at least it's staying in the family. Gunnar Nolan, Sean Kelly, Caelum Maloney and Thomas Slattery made up the Flyers' foursome that ran the distance medley relay at the 79th annual Eastern States Championship at the Armory in Manhattan.

OKay here's the deal. I need a way to colour 2 pages, about 13 panels by monday night.
Right now i've tried the value then overlay method in photoshop, but i'm not gewd enough right now to do that many that fast. They look crappy anyway, but i can handle crappy if it wasn't also slow.
I need a quick and simple way to do the pages. And please, please, please, no "go and practice." I don't need that right now, i need some solid quick fix info or i don't pass my course and don't go to uni and end up being a bum. Would you do that to a fellow artist, no matter how shit he was!

Coach K: Paterno's firing a horrible mistake

09:40 AM ET 06.16 | Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski shared a candid conversation on everything from Team USA and the Blue Devils to Joe Paterno and Penn State on Friday's "Piers Morgan Tonight." "Probably the only person that could rival you in reputation for college sport was Joe Paterno, and his career came to this awful, tragic end," offers Piers Morgan. "How did you feel about that, as someone that knew him well, worked in a parallel world to him for a long time?" "It was horrible, and I've respected Coach Paterno my entire life and had a chance to get to know him really well in the last year of his life," says Krzyzewski. "I thought it was really not well done in handling the situation that - it's a difficult situation to encounter." Having coached the Blue Devils since 1980, in the process winning four National Championships and 13 ACC Tournaments, Krzyzewski is in many ways synonymous with Duke University. Paterno's association with Penn State is remarkably similar, and "Coach K" says it was grossly undervalued: "You had somebody who's given six decades of service to the university and done such an incredible job. Somehow, you have to let - something has to play out and respect the fact that you've gone through all these experiences for six decades," he insists. "It doesn't just go out the window right at the end. I thought it was a real mistake by Penn State's leadership."
Anything that he had done for the university is now overshadowed by Sandusky's sickening crimes. Paterno should have done more.

I understand K's point even though I'm not sure that I agree with it. Paterno should minimally have been suspended for a year and other sanctions applied. Was firing him too extreme? Perhaps. And the way it was done was clumsy.
Funny how a few dozen cases of CHILD MOLESTATION oversahdows some damn wins in college athletics. Sorry Coach K, you are wrong on this one.
I could give a s-H_T if it were a coach or a chief of staff at a hospital that cured cancer. IF this happens on your watch and you knew or should have known and not stopped it.......the hell with you and your reputation.
Coach K, let Wojokowski go mollest a few kids and hide it for him & see what the fine folks in North Carolina do to you
Anything that he had done for the university is now overshadowed by Sandusky's sickening crimes. Paterno should have done more.
Yes I totally agree. It's very hard to imagine that Paterno worked right next to this guy for 20/30 years and didn't know what kind of man Sandusky was/is!!!!! IMO Paterno was just as bad as Sandusky!!!!!!
I agree with this Sir. How are you WPS and how is the little one?
Doing great, 0-6! Little on is 8 months old. She sleeps great and is a REALLY happy baby. Really laid back and easy to care for. Good thing, when you have an "OH S_H-IT" baby at 40, it's nice for God to give you an easy one.
More important, how's your health? You taking care of yourself? We all worry about you............
Sorry Coach K. The only thing I agree with you on is how the Penn State leadership handled it. Other than that, I can't agree with you on this one...but I know you won't lose any sleep over me not agreeing with you.

Coach K only has to look at what Duke did with its lacrosse coach a few years ago. You are judged not only by what your players and coaches do for you on the field but also by what the do away from it.
Coach K has just lost any and all respect I might have had for him with this insanely obtuse comment. I don't care who or what Paterno did for how long at what school, he turned his back on kids being abused and he should have been thrown in jail and suffer similar abuses. Paterno, and anyone else who doesn't stop child abuse should be tortured. Is it just a Catholic thing? We can do whatever we want to kids and in the end just say a prayer and it's all good? Absolutely sickening.

I understand coach K's point, and, while I have a lot of respect for him, he's wrong on this one. Paterno should have done more when he found out what was going on. He had to go.

Penn State was trying to cover up what was going on.They needed someone to haug this on so they went afer coach Paterno to cover their butts.Coach Paterno did report this to the higher ups but they blew him off.All this will come out in the wash and the higher ups will swing.

We are recovering from a really bad storm last night, 6 or 7 inches of rain, tore off an awning and blew it clean over the house and damaged my truck, downed trees and limbs, been at the clean up since six this am, done for now, don't remember, either 16, 17 or 18 truck loads of limbs, wow, and me not doing so hot either, had a tooth pulled this week, should have went somewhere on vacation for this week, huh.
Sorry SIR about your storm.We are fighting wildland fires and some gang bangers starting to burn down old building and a old Saw Mill and then we are getting shoot at like two days ago.I was thinking I was back in Nam but I could not shoot back.The FBI and ATF is all over this.

Thanks for asking, I and my very beautiful Wife are taking good care of me, best we can. I have a rough week, followed by a good/fair week, then two rough ones, and so on, still hanging. Having circutlation problems in lower body, docs can't get it above 35 to 45 percent, got me swelled in the feet and ankles, have to get it drained often, but the docs said not much more than can do and they are not too concerned for now, just on and on, it is caused by me having CHF, and am on meds for blood pressure too, I feel like a walking pill bottle, but I will hang in there, count on it, not ready to go yet, want to see 90, so I have a ways to go yet.
You're always in my prayers (assuming God knows who 0-6 REALLY is :-)!! Take care of yourself.
In Kansas City this AM....drove up here last night with my lovely bride. Half way to Omaha & headed there this morning to watch the CWS and follow my little piggies. Left the baby at home and 1 other for a baseball tourney....traveling w/ only 2 kids seems easy.
Take care of yourself and I'll try to check in on the boards while in Omaha....WPS!! GO HOGS GO!!
Joe Pa was in charge of a big cover up that went on for years at Happy Valley. It wasn't the pristine program that most people thought it to be.

JoePa was just as bad as Sandusky? Now that's not only wrong but totally absurd.
Maybe I was a little harsh on Joe. I should have said, that Joe must have known what Sandusky was doing, hell he worked right along side of the man for 20/30 years!!!! Do we know for sure if Paterno talked to Sankusky after McQueary told Joe of the incident in the shower with Sandkusky and the kid??? Joe should have spoke with Sandusky about the incident.
JoePa was just as bad as Sandusky? Now that's not only wrong but totally absurd.
If Joe covered up for Sandusky, then he was just as guilty!!!
Investigate Duke!

Overall Product Rating (3 out of 5)
30/08/2012 By alexandra
These look very smart and comfortable but come up very large. We are trying a size down from our normal size. They are also wide fitting which it doesn't say on the web site.
Hush Puppies' Reply:
Hi There, Thanks for your review. All of our Hush Puppies footwear are a UK standard fit which is a US wide fit so they may say "WIDE" on the box as we are a US company, however they are not a UK wide fit. We hope this helps. - The Hush Puppies Team
Product Size Rating: Larger than Expected
